The solution on the table is take from the law abiding citizens and only allow mentally ill, drug addicts and criminals have access because they will have access regardless of a ban. Us good people will be the only ones without. Street drugs are illegal to buy, sell and manufacture- what do criminals have an unlimited supply of? What's that billion dollar industry I am thinking about?? lol... How is that ban going? Thanks for posting @rficara :-)

And if we lived in an area of the country that does ban guns for self defense the whole situation you described would have gone bad. It's sad that nobody is looking at the states/cities that ban guns today and see how the "gun violence" is out of control and the cities cry to the police/national guard for help. What's the objective here? to make us all defenseless against violence and let gun control get out of control everywhere? The police are only there to follow up after a crime has been committed how often are they already there at your house to save you in the few minutes you have to survive? Thanks for posting @jcamargo
